Good evening Rudy,They likely would allow it, as the AAFTA rules state for Hunter Rifle a stop ( Only one ) can be utilized. Tho not read of it's allowance along with the 6" depth rule forward of trigger guard ?
The Pistols 3" rule would offer the same question ?
I would reach out to a AAFTA BOG member for clarification.
Thank you for your questions to the BOG.
As you correctly stated rule #4.
Fore end depth is limited to a maximum of 3 inches, measured from the center of the barrel to the lowest part of the gun forward of the trigger guard.”
This rule defines the max limits for anything below the barrel centerline including a barricade.
If your barricade extends more than 3” below the barrel centerline, it is in violation of this rule #4.
There are no other rules related to stops in the pistol rules, so as long as you don’t violate the depth rule you have choices on what you can do there.
For the Hunter rifle class, the rule states “B.
Fore end depth is limited to a maximum of 6 inches, measured from the center of the barrel to the
lowest part of the rifle forward of the pistol grip.”
Once again this rule defines the max limits for anything below the barrel centerline including a barricade.
If your barricade extends more than 6” below the barrel centerline, it is in violation of this rule B.
I hope that I’ve made the rules for the different classes very clear. Let me know if I didn’t.
Regards,
Jeff Cloud
AAFTA Chairman
